God damn I'm depressed today. You know hard it is being the leader of a steadily growing nation? Everyday something pops up and everyday someone is demanding your attention. I haven't gotten a full night of sleep in weeks. This is really cutting into my sex life as well.
Myself and Mrs. Firestorm haven't.. err.. you know.. in nearly three months.
I haven't the energy any more!!!
I can't take vacations..
I can't go bowling..
I can't do anything fun anymore.
What is going on in this world th
Once again, you find yourself tuning into DBC News 24 for the headlines from Diamont's flagship news channel. As always for the evening broadcasts, Jensen Trent is anchoring them with correspondents around the nation. The bells toll from the Palace, and the theme tune begins. Once it ends, Jensen begins his daily broadcast.
Good evening, this is the news at 10 o'clock, I'm Jensen Trent.
The Diamantian Royal Armed Forces came home today from their successful campaign against Togashire. While th
This evening, across Seria there have been a series of street parties and indoor events have been taking place in celebration of GUN's move onto the Aqua sphere. Seria has a deep-rooted affinity with GUN states, with many of the early improvements in technology being supplied from those states, and Serian pounds paying for basic infrastructure in GUN nations. With that technology came a large number of technicians – and it's those immigrant communities that are the root of the celebrations tonig
Hello again,
against my promises, today a slightly different topic, I am just in the mood to go away a bit from basic mechanics and want to write a few sentences about Resources, Bonusgoods and balance. Why? Because I still see people in countless posts and topics aim for horrible trade-circles or complain about how bad their resources are. This article shall help them and offer a simple solution for the admin to make the game a bit more interesting.
Resources
The current Resource system in C
1. When in doubt, hail.
2. Some say that CN cash is the currency of CN. It is not. Hailing is.
3. If your allies sign a treaty together, hail them.
4. If two alliances you've never heard of sign a treaty, hail.
5. Always hail.
6. If you are a former member of \m/, you must remember the 19th of September
7. You must put this in your sig. Everyone must remember.
8. Even if no one knows why.
9. If you are in FAN, you hate NPO.
10. If you are not in FAN, you hate NPO but you just don't talk
Well, since I had an amazing amount of questions (5 that is..) I'll just answer them all. Or try to.

I'd rather fly on a dragon to the Moon. I'm compassionate enough to not want to torture the entire world and have them listen to me singing...

My favorite kind of pie is apple crumble pie.

I'd support pie, since caek is spelled wrong

If you click the word NEW by a blog which has new comments on it, normally you expect the browser to jump to the new unread comments. This is not what happens. Instead, the blog marks all comments in that blog as read and leaves you where you are.
I find this disconcerting. So instead, in order to read new comments, I have to bring up the blog list for that user, and click on the little square with a slash between the two colours for that blog entry.
once upon a time, there was a guy who found a sword. this guy thought the sword was cool looking and picked it up off the ground and then this voice came out of nowhere and was all "you're the chosen one, now you have to go save the kingdom and whatnot, and this guy wasnt stupid so he figured it was someone playing a trick on him, so he laughed and walked away, and was then struck by lightning, and god pointed and laughed at him for not listening, so the guy starts walking towards the castle and
"I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness... and by what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man - or not. "

I'm a bit of a crotchety old fart. Well maybe 33 isn't that old, but I have seen a thing or two. I've traveled to different countries, and I've seen somethings I probably would have been better off not seeing. The time I was slumming on Khan Sao Road in Bangkok is a good example of seeing something I probably would be a better person for having not seen it in the first place.
I remember it vividly being a hot nasty Thai day. I was sitting out on the porch of my hostel drinking a beer. Right ne

I suppose I'll go off and start my own colony, once I find #258 he was good at that whole sex change operation thing. Always bragged about it too "I'll chop ya parts off" Man he was the best doctor we'd ever seen.
Well time to go outside...
I forgot to hit send, silly me. I went outside and now I'm flying. My head seems to be lodged between 2 legs. I think my head be dumber now.

Hello there. Who am I? Chances are you don't know.
First of all, let me dispense with some administrative matters. As far as I'm concerned, this blog is OOC. While it will most certainly discuss IC events, diplomacy, wars and announcements, the person writing this blog does so as the man behind the character.
In game, the few of you that do know me, know me as EmperorVIcious, or VIdiot the Great. Or maybe just plain old 'VI.'

WUT and The Unjust Path
These would prove to be troubling times for TPF. We had joined WUT and all was not what we hoped. Tensions between NpO / GGA and GOONS were growing. The break up of WUT has already been documented many times by others so I will not go into the details. TPFs role in it was to try and keep it together, keep the peace while we looked for another solution.
In the mean time I kept myself busy by building a network of people who would keep me informed on things. Whatever
I... I am......lost.
I'm having troubles breathing and lost my sense for direc *hic!* direction. I think I'm just going to lay here for a bit. No. No I won't. I need to get back to the nest and see a doc *hic!* doctor.
My head is killing me, maybe it has to do with those bumps I got. Where is the nest? I like sugar. Mommy?
My last piece of pie...
A blinding light passed over me on my way back to the fabled oatmeal pie. Perhaps #1081's light, who knows, all I know is that this little bit of oatmeal flavored crumble and fake frosting shall be my last meal.
MY QUEEN... and my life....

I saw the "CN Blog Stars" post and I just had to have one. Just had to. I mean, it's not even a choice for me. CN and blogging? Combining my two loves (read: unhealthy obsessions) was something I once thought unpossible; now they have both feet firmly rooted within the realm of possibility. I almost feel dirty writing this; its kind of like dating two girls on the sly and combining them into one, gelatinous super-girlfriend, the likes of which would kick your arse if you even half-considered jo
Although I'm still somewhat fresh on the scene from returning to CN, it's not particularly hard to notice all of the new alliances. Without going into detail why they came about (I wasn't around for that), I will instead speculate on what, if any, ramifications this boom will have on the Cyberverse.
There are two kinds of incentives for an alliance to better themselves: formal, or in-game incentives, and informal ones, which are generally created by the players. The formal incentives are few
A freind told me that she doesn't care what happens in her life, she just wants to end up living in an East end ***hole having fun. Started me wondering about why that never occured to me. I mean, planning to go to uni, get a good education etc etc. And why? Well, 4 uni's have offered me places so far so obviously they see something in me. Then I thought about how a huge number of people who are born into a council estate, get an awful education, live in a council house and work on a till for th
A middle aged man is sitting at a news desk in a modern studio as you tune in to Diamont Broadcasting Corporation's "News 24" channel. He shuffles his papers and then stares directly at the camera, ready to bring you the news. The familiar bell sound from the Diamont Royal Palace in Aldershot is played along with the theme tune for the news before he begins to speak:

TPF - The Early Days
The Phoenix Federation was formed in a merger between TF! and COLD. The leadership was a Triumvirate of Slayer99, TimLee, and Geopet. I took a spot as one of TPFs 3 Four Star Generals. TPF was one of those merges that occur on rare occasions when the mix of talent complimented each other and TPF became one very quickly. TPF is what I would call a fun and gun alliance. We like to fight and we like to have fun. We carried over most of our treaties from before notably
